“Being a first-time home buyer, Benchmark Mortgage made the process easy.
They were with us from the beginning till the end and guided us well. Whenever we wanted, they were there for us even after operational hours. I would like to thank everyone at Benchmark especially Robin Hangartner for assistance during the entire time.
When we were looking for houses, she was with us, and her valuable advice we appreciated a lot. This helped us to have a better understanding and reach our goal. She was very understanding and tolerated our questions. Robin was very knowledgeable and guided us thoroughly during the mortgage process. This helped us a lot and to finalize the house easily.
We were lucky to have a professional team like them and we have not made this without their help.
Thank you again for all the help and guidance!.”

“Benchmark Staff was very helpful in the stressful buying process this summer. We changed from renting out our home, to selling it and they were very flexible and easy to work with. Easily a text or phone call away, instead of the 9-5 with big banks. Everything was seamless, their portal is easy to use and we had a smooth closing. This is the 3rd purchase we have made and definitely the easiest.”

– Jacqueline Phillips – 2/9/2023 (via oogle)

“Our experience with Benchmark Mortgage was fantastic.
This was our first mortgage and we really had no experience with borrowing large amounts of money for anything. Robin really walked us through the process so that we understood it really well. She also took the time to understand our plans for the next several years and our financial situation to help us make decisions that worked best for us. She also followed up throughout to make sure everything went well. We are really grateful to her.
Brandy made the paperwork handling and documents really easy so we really didn’t have much work to do with approval and closing.
Overall, we really enjoyed the loan process and would very much suggest to anyone to check with this agency for their mortgage.”

– Chizuru Waseda – 2/8/2023 (via oogle)

“Benchmark has proven twice to be helpful, knowledgeable and supportive. I’ve bought two homes with their help in 2022. I highly recommend this mortgage company to anyone who’s looking for top quality customer service and insight when needing to finance a property. Ask for Robin Hangartner. She’s incredibly thorough, supportive and responsive.”

“Benchmark was an amazing company to work with when I bought my home. They kept me informed every step of the way.

I felt valued and informed through the entire experience. Great job!!”

– lance barrett – 10/5/2022 (via oogle)

“Benchmark Mortgage made it so easy for us to get a mortgage. We were really stressed about the process, but they walked us through every step and made it so easy. We are so grateful to them for helping us get into our new home! Their follow up process was second to none and their online system made it easy to upload all the documents they needed to approve our mortgage. Once we were ready to go, they even sent us a “get ready to move” package full of packing tape (extremely useful) and even candy! We wholeheartedly recommend Benchmark Mortgage to anyone looking for a great mortgage experience! Thank you, Benchmark team!”

“We found Susan at Benchmark completely by accident. We went to an open house where our car broke down and my wife was telling the agent about me being a veteran and she highly recommended Susan so I gave her a call. From the very first conversation to closing I have to say it was the easiest and most pleasant experience I have had in purchasing a home. The staff is so communicative and kind, I can’t say enough about Benchmark and will be recommending them to everyone I know. Thank you to the entire team at Benchmark for a fantastic experience.”

– Ralph G. – 9/28/2020

“Susan, Shandy, Whitney, Valerie, Brandy ~ a great team of kind hearted professionals. From my first call with Whitney to my day of closing, these guys have been extremely wonderful. I’ve heard for many years how stressful the home buying process is and being a first time home buyer I was honestly very scared. These guys at benchmark made my experience so comfortable and stress free. They are very compassionate, thorough and everyone is kept on the same page, absolutely no confusion. I literally closed on my home in 32 days of getting my pre-approval. If you are looking to make a purchase, DO NOT look any further, this Benchmark Team is the Team for you. Try them and thank me later. A BIG Thank you to the Benchmark Team. I truly appreciate ALL that you have done for me.”

Mr. King was always quick to respond with help or answers to questions I had along the way. I honestly could not think of a way they could have improved the process.

For a process that can be extremely stressful, frustrating, and complicated, everyone stepped up, presented great solutions (not just one but several,) and wasted no time making sure they were all efficiently executed. Susan was always very patient when explaining things that were new to us to make sure we were comfortable with our decisions. I would recommend them to anyone!”

– Team Belfast – 09/06/2019

“When I bought my house in February, 2018, Benchmark Mortgage’s friendliness, competence, and responsiveness were all topnotch. I was very impressed with how quickly Susan started the process, and she and her team were quick throughout the remainder of the process. I’m very happy with the result.

In August 2019, I went back to Benchmark Mortgage to refinance – and once again, I was very happy with the experience. I shopped around and Benchmark gave me the best rate and the best service. They wrapped it up on schedule and when I discovered one small problem, they made it good immediately. Highly recommend.”

“Susan and her team at Benchmark Mortgage made my home-buying experience a breeze. From the start they provided quality service by making sure I was aware of all of the steps necessary in closing on my dream home. It took us less than 30 days to close and I owe all of that to their personal commitment to my account. I highly recommend them if you want a stress-free seamless home-buying experience.”

– akeenut townsend – 8/7/2019 (via oogle)

“My husband and I just bought our first house, and being our first experience we had no idea what we were doing. Benchmark was there every step of the way through the process. They came highly recommended by our agent for the positive experiences they had previously. Everything was very organized throughout and we were always ahead of schedule to the point we had everything ready to go about 2 weeks before closing. That time leading up to closing I had been told would feel frantic, but we were so calm and just worried about moving because Benchmark was on top of everything. The money element was great. They made sure to factor in any and all possible costs in our estimates leading up to closing. That way if there were any financial surprises the day of closing they would be good surprises. We actually ended up paying less than the estimate. They also sent us some goodies to prepare us for the move which was a nice touch. Thank you for helping us get our first home and take this big step together!”

– Caitlyn Tillman – 07/27/2019 (via Facebook)

“Benchmark helped us purchase our first home under super difficult circumstances. I am self-employed and my fiance works in the film industry where every movie/project looks like a totally new employer. We even had subpar credit! I tried multiple companies who all turned us down before I found Benchmark. They qualified us for more than I thought possible and they did it quickly at a great rate. I would recommend them to anyone, especially those in the film industry. They understand how that type of employment works and had no issue with my self employment.”

“Benchmark did a great job with my loan. I appreciate them being there at the closing to handle a last minute issue. Thank you!”

– Patrick G. – 12/4/2018 (via oogle)

“The Benchmark Team is nothing short of amazing. I have been in real estate for over 13 years. As a busy Realtor that has a team and also manages an office, time is like it is with all of us, a hot commodity, and to know that I can send my clients and they are taken care of in the highest regard is the true definition of teamwork. Every step of the way, their team is consulting with our clients so they are empowered through the process and understand every piece of the financial decision they are making. During a recent transaction with the team, on the loan side everything was great however, on the real estate side, issue after issue came up with the seller once it became time for them to do what they contractually agreed to do. While I navigated those waters, I NEVER had to worry about what was going on for the financing part and we even moved the closing up by 2 weeks so my client could receive an additional $1,000 in seller paid closing costs. Our role as a Broker is to focus on negotiating the best deals for our clients and a big portion of that is recommending them to other trusted advisors like the Benchmark Mortgage Team. Call them today – you will be so happy that you did!”

“For the World to know!!! The Benchmark Team is incredible!!! We closed on our house in exactly two weeks after another Lender decided to tell us they could not help us 3 days before our closing day. We was devastated!! Got a referral to call Benchmark. This call changed our lives!! Whitney was so amazing, she listened to all my ranting about the other Lender and moved on to what was more important at the time. She worked our file immediately. The welcome box brought tears to my eyes!! It was waiting at my front door after a hard day of work. On closing day they send out messages congratulating your closing and letting you know your not alone, they are just a phone call away. We can’t thank all of you enough!!! I will be sending every potential home owner I know to the Benchmark Team from this day forth!!! May God bless all of you!!! Keep changing Lives!!!For the world to know!!! The Benchmark Team is incredible!!! We closed!”

– Megan B. – 08/22/2018

“Being a first time home buyer I was almost shocked by how easy and quick the team at Benchmark Mortgage made the experience!
I had friends that went with OTHER lenders and spoke of last minute requests that should have been requested before, mixed answers to questions or no answer, and a very hectic process throughout.
Everyone at Benchmark was easy to contact, extremely friendly, knowledgable, and worked so efficiently! I didn’t need to worry about a thing. They were able to answer any and every question and made the mortgage process seamless and I was able to focus on packing!
Thank you all at Benchmark! I love my home!!!!!!”

– Jessica F. – 08/14/2018 (via oogle)

“We bought our 1st home with Shandy KING. The process was stress free. I tried 3 mortgage companies before and walked away from those companies. They wanted money upfront for fees etc. I was unsure. Shandy made the process stressfree and we closed on our home 3 weeks after we put in our offer. that was less than 21 business days. We went in as cash buyers and bought our beautiful home because of them.
After being turned down by other mortgage companies, Benchmark Mortgage did it for us and we look forward to doing business with them in the future!”

“I would highly recommend Benchmark Mortgage to anyone. My fiance and I were in a difficult situation; I am self employed and he works in the film industry where there are gaps in employment between each production. Neither of us have stellar credit. To make things more complicated I found out at the last minute that my apartment complex was renovating and wouldn’t renew my lease so we were on a time crunch. I called a multitude of mortgage companies, some wouldn’t even try to work with us.
I went through the application process with 3 mortgage companies and Benchmark was by far the easiest to work with. Their customer service was great, they’re super friendly and patient with me and my many ridiculous questions. Most importantly they were able to qualify us for a substantially larger loan than the other two lenders, nearly double what the first company offered us!
I would recommend them to anyone, but if you work in the film industry don’t even waste your time shopping around. They have invaluable experience in this area that I couldn’t find anywhere else. I feel blessed to have come across Benchmark, they made the process as easy and stress free as a super complicated mortgage like mine could have been.”

– Kathryn C. (from Zillow)

“Susan and her team were great. Everything was handled promptly and professionally, 30 days from offer to closing! My questions were answered (even the dumb ones) and my nerves calmed with their timely responses. I would recommend Susan Pryor and Benchmark Mortgage to friends and family.”

“I worked with Benchmark Mortgage in a move from Florida to Georgia. I was moving for a new job that wasn’t set to start until the end of August (I’m a professor), but my wife and I wanted to buy before the job started. I had some difficulty working with another potential lender, who didn’t understand what would need to be done to get approval for a loan before my job started. Thankfully, my Realtor pointed me in the direction of Benchmark. This is a knowledgeable and savvy team. After we agreed to work with them, they stayed on top of all the important deadlines, paperwork requirements, etc. They fielded questions by email, by phone, and by text message (sometimes, to my surprise, even after hours!). Seriously, choosing this team should be a no-brainer.”

– Nick B. (from Zillow)

“Moving across country can be a harrowing experience but Susan made the transition easy, even when my computer failed us. Way to go, Susan. I would recommend you and your team in a minute. You even helped me today, three weeks after closing”

In the mortgage business, nothing is more valuable than proof of excellent service. The best evidence is not our low ratio of complaints, or the full branding of what is merely our everyday approach to lending: Lifetime-Loan-wBG-300x47. The best evidence is your testimony and what other clients have said.

Are you a satisfied homeowner? Tell the world.
